The Machine Stops

Liner Notes

I've pretty much got the basic drum, bass, and guitar thing down. Now I'm working on getting more keyboard lines into my songs.

Lyrics

We're surrounded by machines
Everywhere there's a screen
But somewhere on the way
They stopped serving our needs
And we became slaves to the machines

So it's time to throw off this tyranny
And take back control of our lives
Cos no matter how impressive it may seem
The machine stops when it's compromised

We are people, born of sticks and stones
When the gears stop, we go on alone
By the sweat of our brows
We'll tear the whole thing down
When it's time to tip the greedy off their thrones

We don't need it, if it doesn't serve
We are the masters, not the slaves
And all the rhetoric, all the lies
Won't excuse how they behave
